🪔 Just for eyes pleasure: This black bowl depicting a hunter and his dog was probably made in Etruria about 300-280 BC. It is unusual because, unlike the usual pottery decoration, it was painted in added colour with shadows and depth. Now in the BM. 📸 me

@TimeTravelRome @archaeodons @histodons @antiquidons who stole it for the BM? When are they giving it back? Do they say they are waiting for Italy to have museums that are good enought to house it?

Israeli Damage to Archives, Libraries, and Museums in Gaza, October 2023–January 2024 (A Preliminary Report from Librarians and Archivists with Palestine).

"The destruction of cultural heritage in Gaza impoverishes the collective identity of the Palestinian people, irrevocably denies them their history, and violates their sovereignty. In this report, we offer a partial list of archives, libraries, and museums in Gaza that have been destroyed, damaged, or looted by Israeli armed forces
since October 7, 2023."

"We compile and offer this information with the understanding that the erasure
of Palestinian culture and history has long been an Israeli tactic of war and occupation, a means to further limit the self-determination of the Palestinian people."

☀️ Close to Spain’s vital silver mines, Carthago Nova prospered throughout the mid to late Republic: the historian Polybius describing it as a magnificent capital resplendent in palaces, temples, and, of course, its all important harbour.

📜 The post about Carthago Nova was written for Timetravelrome by our long time friend & author Michel Gybels. It is dedicated to Molinete - the main archaeological area of the ancient city. 📸 Link 👉

@TimeTravelRome @archaeodons @histodons @antiquidons You do realise there was a Spanish Republic too. Not everything can be seen through the eyes of Greek and Roman romanticism

At the moment only the Swedish sites have been imported, more content to follow.

This is wonderful. For those of us who have been, for example, to Tannum and taken inadequate photos of our own it is marvellous to see the range and extent of the petroglyphs and the quality of the images here. Thank you.
